        abstract = {Soil quality is a critical factor in environmental sustainability, influencing agriculture, biodiversity, and water cycles. Different land-use types, including industrial, urban, agricultural, and natural ecosystems, affect soil properties such as pH, organic carbon, electrical conductivity (EC), and heavy metal contamination. This study examines soil samples from six locations in Nagpur, analyzing key physicochemical parameters. The results show that industrial and urban soils have higher contamination levels, while agricultural soils face nutrient imbalances. The study highlights the need for sustainable soil management policies to maintain soil health.},
